A kitchen in a P 44 series house can be 8.5 or 10.1 sq.m. in size. In fact, the area of these rooms is actually smaller, due to the fact that part of the space is occupied by the box in which the ventilation pipes are located.
You cannot make any serious changes to the design of the box with your own hands, as this may lead to disruption of air exchange. And I don’t really want to pay the fines that may be imposed for unauthorized tapping.
Arrangement of the kitchen space at home p 44
Note! A serious task for an eight-meter kitchen is to find a place where the refrigerator will be placed. It is impossible to place it in a corner, since the heating pipe runs there, and next to the hood the refrigerator will visually overload the room.
The layout of the kitchen n 44 with an area of ten square meters is more convenient. It has the ability to place a refrigerator behind the door. The rest of the space can easily accommodate a linear or corner kitchen. True, you will have to use non-standard kitchen cabinets, the depth of which is less.
Features of the kitchen layout 10 sq. m. in houses of the P 44 series
Such a science as interior design was created to make it possible to arrange rooms with all the existing flaws and features. Thanks to it, you can transform almost any mistake of architects and builders.
The ventilation duct is the main problem of the kitchen in the P 44 series house
Speaking about the design of the P 44 kitchen, it is worth noting some features of the room design:
- The protruding shaft ventilation duct creates a visual division of the room.
- The selection of furniture and kitchen units will have to be adjusted to local conditions, which will lead to additional expenses.
- The choice of furniture must be approached wisely, as it must correspond to the size of the room, which is limited by ventilation.
- The location of the refrigerator, as the largest object, will be very problematic, but possible.
- The need for decorative finishing of the ventilation duct in accordance with the overall design style of the kitchen space.
Furniture must be multifunctional
Attention! It is worth noting that it is not possible to dismantle this structure on your own. You can disrupt air circulation through the channel, and also incur liability, including administrative liability.
You can’t demolish the wall ledge, but you can decorate it in an original way
But not everything is as bad as it seems at first glance. With the right approach, you will get an original kitchen design, and the presence of the ventilation duct will be invisible.
Layout
Kitchen plan P-44 has a number of specific features:
- The area is 8.5 meters (in one and two-room apartments) and 10.1 meters (in three-room apartments). This space accommodates a full-fledged kitchen-dining room.
- The room has one window, one door.
- The kitchen has a rectangular shape.
- The ventilation duct is located next to the front door. It cannot be dismantled. Where the kitchen has an area of 10.1 sq. meters, there is a place near the door where the refrigerator can easily fit.
- The heating risers are located in the corner near the window.
Attention! In the houses of the P-44T series, the kitchens are completely different: they have a bay window. Due to it, the total living area is 13.2 square meters. meters. The bay window can have a trapezoidal, triangular or semicircular shape and is completely glazed. There is no ventilation duct in the room; it is placed in the corridor, so the overall shape of the kitchen becomes close to a square. The presence of a bay window opens up additional opportunities for the implementation of a design project. It contains: a dining area with a full-fledged dining group, a relaxation area with a soft sofa, the shape of which follows the shape of a bay window, a winter garden, an office, and a sports corner.
Choosing a kitchen set for houses of the P 44 series
Having a wall overhang in your kitchen will require you to choose custom kitchen furniture. Visit a furniture shopping center in your city. They offer a wide range of layout options for different kitchen designs.
Furniture manufacturers will make a set of any configuration
Pay attention to what can be used to beat the wall ledge. This solution is possible by using the following tricks:
- Shaped tabletop with a cutout to fit the ledge. In this case, the cutout can be either rectangular or round.
- If we talk about the headset, then order a wall cabinet with a similar cutout. This will allow you to hide the box without consequences.
- The lower part of the kitchen is open. This is possible when purchasing shelves for storing kitchen utensils. It would be a good idea to install a decorative kitchen design corner here. All kinds of figurines, flower arrangements, photographs, decorated or wicker dishes, pictures of landscapes, and so on are suitable here.
- If desired, install a bar counter here. This place is perfect for her.
Open shelves are useful for placing kitchen utensils
If the style of the room allows it, then the ventilation duct should ideally be painted in a contrasting color. This will create favorable zoning of the room. Hang a TV here, or decorate the wall with decorations. These can be the same photographs, dressed in beautiful frames, framed by mats, or hanging shelves on which decorative elements of the interior decoration are harmoniously placed.
The ventilation duct can not be hidden, but can be integrated into the interior in an original way through decorative camouflage
The ventilation duct is suitable as a basis for an original interior composition
We place furniture in the kitchen with layout P 44
There are several options for arranging furniture in house P 44; first, let’s take the option with a one-room apartment of 8 sq. m. m.
The first option is a p44 corner-type layout with the refrigerator placed next to the ventilation duct. This option allows you to arrange cabinets and shelves on two walls, furniture, small household appliances: blender, kettle, meat grinder, juicer, multicooker. In the corner type, you get more additional space on the countertops, where there is a work surface for cooking and cutting food. You are getting:
- The refrigerator that stands next to the box on the left side of the doors;
- Corner sink with sink – width 100 cm;
- There is a built-in washing machine or dishwasher next to a straight wall;
- Cabinet and countertop;
- Hob;
- A pair of cabinets: for a microwave and a work surface;
- Dining table next to the window.
A ventilation duct in the form of a column, a bay window - everything is beautiful
Advice: if you are happy with the refrigerator standing next to the box and slightly pushed out towards the center of the kitchen, this layout will suit you; if this does not suit you, choose the next option.
In the second version, the design of the kitchen n 44 with an air duct provided for the placement of the refrigerator in the corner next to the window. This option requires you to leave 10-12 cm from the wall so that you can open the door well without touching the curtains. Attach the TV and microwave oven to the box using special brackets. Leave cabinets and household appliances as in the corner arrangement.
The third option is to place the furniture next to the wall in one row, only here the sink is not in the corner, but straight. This is a good apartment plan p44t with dimensions, so there is more free space due to the reduction of cabinets and hanging shelves on the set.
Tip: hang shelves and drawers on the wall opposite, this is good above the table and on both sides of it.
Classic
The “classic” kitchen design is well suited for the P 44 series home. Combining strict harmony, hidden high cost, as well as a clear taste for the owner’s style, it will transform the interior decoration of any room. Choose light colors, as they can visually increase the space of the room.
The flooring should be made of light-colored ceramic tiles. Pay attention to this, because you will have to wash the floor here often. There is no need to choose obvious whiteness, since such a coating is very easily soiled. The best idea would be milk, vanilla, and suitable shades of white. If the budget does not allow, then lay linoleum. Thanks to its wide selection, it is possible to choose any pattern. Find a pattern that follows the texture of ceramic tiles.
For a small kitchen with an area of 10 square meters, it is better to choose a light-colored set
Perform the wall covering in a combined way, using different finishing materials, as well as different color schemes. The apron is best made with the same ceramics. In this case, the size of each tile is chosen small. It would be correct to highlight the area of the gas (electric) stove with an accent color. Use the same color scheme to decorate the protruding ventilation duct.
The set is suitable here with white cabinet fronts. The kitchen room of the house of the P 44, or 137 series involves the use of a corner set. This decision should be taken into account when choosing furniture. Also, with an area of 10 square meters, the presence of voluminous cabinets can limit the space. Therefore, choose corner facades with a rounded shape.
On one side of the window there will be a built-in refrigerator, on the other there will be a dining table with a soft sofa.
Convenient drawers under the gas oven
The “classic” kitchen design accepts the presence of a bar counter. It must combine the sophistication, grandeur and severity inherent in this style.
The ceiling space is designed in different ways. It all depends on the visual load. If the interior is quite richly decorated with decorations and accents that attract attention, then the ceiling space can be left pure white. Ordinary whitewash will do here. If you want to decorate the room more, the ceiling is made in several levels. The use of spotlights is encouraged. To visually increase the size of the room, glass panels are made on the ceiling in the central area. This will further reflect the light.
Spotlights can be installed along the perimeter of the suspended ceiling
Advice. If you purchased a wall cabinet with glass fronts, it would be nice to install lighting inside. At night this solution looks great.
Additional lighting is also needed above the kitchen work area.

Features of the layout and design of kitchens in a 44 series house
Houses of the 44 series have their own characteristics, including kitchens. They are of medium size and when you start renovating a p44 kitchen, it seems as if there won’t be any special difficulties. But the layout of the kitchens in the houses of this series has features that complicate the work of placing furniture and remodeling. First of all, this is the presence of a box in which the ventilation pipes pass, which eliminates the relatively large size of the kitchens and complicates the design.
The kitchen area p44 allows you to arrange furniture to your taste, since convenience will not suffer with such an area
A marine-style kitchen is ideal for the 44th kitchen
But in the houses of the 44t series there is a bay window. He significantly expanded the usable area of kitchens to 13 m2, thereby delighting apartment owners.

Options for “playing out” the ventilation duct

Kitchen design in houses of the p44 series
If you want to visually enlarge the room, use glass elements, for example, a dining table
In p44 houses, the kitchen has dimensions of 8.5 or 10.1 m. The ventilation duct spoils everything. There is no way to get rid of this box, so the design of the kitchen of the P44 series must be developed, fitting it into the interior.
Important : Because of the box, it is difficult to fit a refrigerator into the kitchen. In one-room and two-room apartments with a kitchen of 8.5 m2, the best option would be to move the refrigerator from the kitchen into the hallway or living room. The design of a 10 m kitchen in a p44t house will be more complete if you also remove the door.
In houses of the p44 series, the kitchen can be either corner or not. In corner kitchens, an L-shaped set and custom-shaped cabinets made according to an individual project will look great. In a corner kitchen, the refrigerator can be placed next to the box. As an option, a sink is placed in the niche formed by the box. Or the kitchen design in panel houses of the p44 series can be based on moving the refrigerator to the window.
The box can be played up by using it as a mounting location for a microwave or TV.
In two and three room apartments, the kitchen is more spacious and there are more options for placing furniture. Both linear and L-shaped, as well as U-shaped headsets are suitable here.
Kitchen design in apartments of series 137
In the kitchen of the 137 series of sets, it is best to choose not a corner set, but a line - this will be a more rational solution
The correct shape of the 137 series makes the kitchen very convenient in choosing the layout and arrangement of furniture
Kitchen renovation in apartments of the 137 series should be based on the features of its layout. The smallest kitchens in the old-style 137 series houses have an area of only 7 square meters. m. In new houses of the 137 series, the kitchen reaches 15 m.
Old kitchens are the hardest thing to deal with. In such small spaces, you can place a linear set along the wall. The space under the window should be used as much as possible for shelves and racks to increase storage space. In some cases, it is better to move the 137 series refrigerator outside the kitchen. The table can be placed along one of the walls.
In a 15 m 137 series kitchen you can make a kitchen-dining room, where the dining area is located in the middle of the room. Here the furniture and work area are placed along the walls.
How to arrange a kitchen in houses of the P-44 series
Modernizing a kitchen in a 1-room or 2-room apartment of the P-44 series is not an easy task, especially if it is only 8 square meters, although for some this room is a couple of meters larger. The main problem is to fit everything you need for the kitchen:
- fridge;
- stove with hood;
- cabinet furniture;
- sink and work area;
- dining table or kitchen corner.
Some designers manage to safely squeeze in all these pieces of furniture and kitchen equipment, adding a bar counter or original decor for zoning. But a lot depends on the dimensions. For example, a refrigerator will fit behind the door if it is tall but small.
The problem with such kitchens is that it’s difficult to fit everything you need in there.
Some designers manage to create a full-fledged kitchen and add decorative elements
Built-in furniture is an ideal solution, especially if you play with the design of the kitchen with a ventilation duct in the P-44 house. The problem with an unaesthetic protrusion can be solved in different ways:
- disguise with spectacular finishing materials (decorative plaster, wild stone, tiles);
- hide behind the facade of cabinet furniture;
- use as a surface for kitchen decor;
- design it as a functional corner for zoning.
The ventilation duct noticeably takes up part of the small kitchen space, so it needs to be compensated - visually and functionally, as in the photo of the layout.
The kitchen can also be combined with the living room

Try to make the kitchen cozy and comfortable
When planning your kitchen, take into account all the features of the room
Regardless of what advantages or disadvantages this or that type of layout has, you need to functionally beat every centimeter of the kitchen. Some features of the kitchen design in a house of the P-44 series with a box were repeatedly discussed in “Housing Issues” and other programs about renovation and interior design. Layouts with a bay window and an attached balcony area were played with.
However, radical redevelopment in these houses is not recommended, this is due to the specific location of the box, which cannot be removed, and most of the walls here are load-bearing. You can move the gas stove and sink with mixer, but along the wall that was provided for in the original design.
Use all free space as functionally as possible
On some renovation and design programs, the topic of small kitchens is often discussed.
It is not recommended to do general redevelopment in such houses
If you use mirror tiles, glass shelves and countertops, the room will seem more spacious. But they require constant cleaning to look perfect. The same applies to light-colored floors and ceilings.
